clock-up/create a calorie deficit Explanation: It doesn't necessarily mean burning off, but rather creating a deficit by burning more and eating less. http://www.bmi-calculator.net/bmr-calculator/harris-benedict... So, if you create a 3500-calorie deficit through diet, exercise or a combination of both, you will lose one pound of body weight. (On average 75% of this is fat, 25% lean tissue) If you create a 7000 calorie deficit you will lose two pounds and so on. The calorie deficit can be achieved either by calorie-restriction alone, or by a combination of fewer calories in (diet) and more calories out (exercise) |
